looking over some older press releases from a spanish/latin press portal I came upon this article:Quepasa.com (QPSA 2.62 US, last traded), one of the world's largest (I would take issue with that statement) bilingual, Latino online communities, and Latinas Illustrated today announced an exclusive partnership to launch an international search for the top 12 most beautiful Latinas in the U.S. and Latin America. The partnership includes a fully interactive online community and international model search contest with the winners to be featured in the Latinas Illustrated 2009 swimsuit calendar edition. "We are excited about providing Latinas from all over the U.S. and Latin America this great opportunity to showcase their talent and realize their modeling dreams," Quepasa CEO John C. Abbott stated. "Through the online community we are providing a unique outlet for aspiring Latina models to gain international recognition." This is one of the many projects we are launching to drive traffic to Quepasa to enhance our social networking community for Latinos here and in Latin America," commented Jeff Valdez, Quepasa's recently installed co-chairman. "We are happy to be working with Latinas Illustrated to offer our members a richer online experience." The community will center around the model search contest to find 12 gorgeous Latina models to feature in the 2009 Latinas Illustrated Swimsuit Calendar, which will be available for sale on Quepasa.com and other outlets. Entrants can sign up at quepasa.com/community/latinasillustrated.html and upload five photos from which the Quepasa.com community will vote on and determine who the finalists will be.
